Marketplace Overview

On-demand, secure, and accessible identity verification services powered by blockchain technology and governed with CVC tokens.

Marketplace Use Cases

How It Works

The ecosystem is designed to incentivize participation by trustworthy identity verification providers:

Validators set the price within the marketplace, record an attestation on the blockchain after successfully verifying the identity data of a User.

Requesters pay into escrow to be able to leverage the work already performed by trusted Validators and eliminate the redundancy of having to re-verify User information.

Users only hand our Verifiable Credentials if the Requesters payments are received by the respective Validators.

Concepts

As the ecosystem is built and grows, we want to make sure we all speak the same language when it comes to identity verification and ecosystem members. This is a continuously updated list, so come back here if you find terms you don’t understand and can’t find on the web. While we do our best to keep it complete, suggestions are welcome.
